The present ball, said Mr. Anc- korn, gave the ordinary player so much pleasure that it would be a great mistake to take it away. With the restricted ball there would be a tendency to take a great deal of the pleasure away. It could only be introduced because of- about 1

SQUASH RACKETS TRIUMPH AFTER 2 YEARS' ABSENCE

Gandar Dower In His Best Form

After an absence of two years from competitive squash rackets, K. C. Gandar Dower, generally re- garded before his semi-retirement as second only to the great Amr Bey, made a triumphant return to the game in the opening match in the first division of the Bath Club Cup competition at Queen's Club, West Kensington, last night, when Queen's beat the Bath Club by three matches to none.

Gandar Dower, playing first string for Queen's, defeated T. C. S. Haywood by 9-2, 9-5, in less than a quarter of an hour. Gandar Dower looked as good as ever he was. He was, as always, completely unortho- dox, and we saw some uncanny anti- cipation, the ability to take the ball earlier than any other living player, and his unconventional use of the half-volley.
